Chair Indigenous Health, Professor Public Health, Unit Director - Muru Marri Indigenous Health Unit | School of Public Health and Community Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of New South Wales

I am a Koori woman committed to a career that translates my work into research capacity building for Aboriginal workers and improved health status for Aboriginal people. I work within a group dedicated to Aboriginal population health and ageing across the lifespan, where the innovative nature of my work includes partnership with co-investigators in both Indigenous adult health studies and child health studies and in relating current adult health status to childhood and life-cycle risk factors, in particular to major socio-economic factors affecting cognition and behaviour.
